Why use geocities?
There are many free hosting sites that dont limit you to one-view-an-hour

I've played with this Java Guncam utility a bit but haven't had great results.  I found it tends to leave a lot of frames blank or partial, others that cut the gunsite out altogether.  Anyone who has used this have any reason why?

Yes the java guncam

-because I have geocities..and I didnt know they had a limit per hour :confused:

--This is Tac (lost my password for the Tac handle BBS and I changed my e-mail..no way of getting it back. Unless skuzzy SAVES ME hehe)

---You have to set up the guncam to the exact resolution you run the game in since it runs in full window mode. I also increased the frames it takes per second as well as set it to get a few dozen frames more after I quit pressing the button, so people can see the "results". The memory setting is VERY important, I set mine as high as I could.

The only drawback to this is that sometimes it hogs down the game... reducing the memory usage of the guncam helps solve this.

I've never had any problems using the Java Guncam and use it quite frequently.  Reason I use it because you can make cool looking gun-cam films with it.

you need a .gif animator to put the screenshots together to make a gun cam film.  you kind find a toejam load of free ones on the 'net if you search around.

Here's what it looks like. It's a smaller gif version, but will give those who haven't seen it an idea of what it's about.

Should mention, that mine is aged using the guncam's b&w and aging.

It would be nice if HiTech built a GunCam into AcesHigh.
